Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/pcap: support hardware Tx timestamps
Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2020 15:39:38 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200610193938.218768-1-vivien.didelot@gmail.com> (raw)

When hardware timestamping is enabled on Rx path, system time should
no longer be used to calculate the timestamps when dumping packets.

Instead, use the value stored by the driver in mbuf->timestamp
and assume it is already converted to nanoseconds (otherwise the
application may edit the packet headers itself afterwards).
